Mantra Counter is a structured tracker for mantra recitation, daily homework completion, and Little House progress. Use it to: - Track and edit counts for multiple mantra counters. - Set per-mantra homework goals and mark completion by date. - View missed homework days and catch up specific dates. - Apply rule-based deductions: completing homework deducts homework goals from mantra counts. - Convert eligible mantra sets into Little Houses, then allocate or unallocate Little Houses to recipients. - Manage recipient progress with names, goals, and optional target dates. - Review daily history in the calendar, including recitation totals, homework deductions, Little House deductions, conversions, and allocations.
